"Vlor originally started way back in 1992 consisting of best friends Brian John Mitchell (Remora) & Russell Halasz with acoustic guitars doing Cure & Bauhaus covers. A lack of money for delay & reverb & looping units led to experimentation with natural reverbs in odd rooms & repetitive guitar drones, arpeggios, & riffs. In 1997 Vlor recorded the Lavished EP in a racquetball court & in 1998 Vlor recorded the Luxate EP on a four track. Unfortunately 1998 also seemingly marked the end of Vlor with Halasz moving to Florida.

Some of the tracks like "wires" show the overwhelming power & orchestration the project is capable of despite the song's humble start with a guitar that survived a fire strung with steel wire instead of guitar strings. Other tracks like "pale lights" & "trust in weapons" remain content as minimalist guitar experiments. Vlor in the end is about two things, friendship & music."-Silber Media
